Another OC drabble with Leo and Izumi. This time a canon thing.
Leo readjusted his scarf that was loosely wrapped at his neck. At this time of year it wasn't the brightest idea to lounge around at the beach. It was already chilly out and being by the beach side didn't help by any means necessary. Though there wasn't anyplace else he ever want to be at right now.
The whole day was spent spoiling his significant other with anything his heart desired which by all means was hard since Izumi was an incredibly humble person. The two took walks in the city telling one another corny pick up lines and laughing while holding hands. They were off in their own tiny little world while the rest of reality sped past them.
Leo knew how significant this day meant to Izumi. It was a day of loss, but Leo saw it as a chance to celebrate. Another year of living and another year older. He wasn't sure what his life would be without Izumi here with him. Everyday even at its worst he'd come back home to greet his adoring boyfriend to curl up with him.
Meanwhile this day was the day Izumi had loss a greater part of him. In the deepest confines of his depression he'd had lost his partner in the force. While he and Leo were apart the last person that gave him a glimmer of happiness was her...each time the day came around he'd never want to do anything. No celebrations or parties let alone a cake. He wanted to stay alone with his work as usual.
Leo found this behavior unacceptable as they always made plans on his own birthday. He wanted to go completely out for him knowing Izumi would do the same in return. They had a day out of dining and walking (mostly walking) and left the two of them exhausted.
Leo felt the sand between his fingers, listened to the waves, and rest his head on Izumi's shoulder. He suddenly felt nervous asking him about this, but he found no other time better than now. He could feel his heart beating louder and louder. He hoped placing his hand on top of Izumi's and letting their fingers intertwine. Something about the ocean always made him think of Izumi...besides the fact his eyes were blue his personality reminded him of the ocean. Strong, steady, and gentle. Getting on his bad side was a scary thought and made him think of waves crashing through harsh winds.
He looked over to see Izumi staring out at the horizon. Looking at inherent nothingness while the breeze let his bangs tickle at his face. Leo has never loved someone so much before, and even if Izumi were to say no he'd make it work. There's no other person he'd ever want to be with besides him.
“Hey…” Leo began, “you know how much I love you”
“I love you more” Izumi responded back
“I love you way more”
“Nuh uh”
“Yeah huh, before we argue about this there's something very important I gotta tell you”
“Is something wrong?” Leo meet Izumi's concerned gaze fixated upon him. He quickly shook his head no.
“Just listen okay? You mean a lot to me, and I'm not sure what I'd do without you. I know I'm not the greatest guy on the market, but you picked me anyways out of anyone else. There's never a dull or sad day being with you. You always know how to make me smile” He extended his free hand to gently caress Izumi's cheek. “Ever since we began dating long ago I never regret the decision. When we broke apart for a few months I realized I lost not only my boyfriend but my best friend...my other half. I lost a part of me, and I never want it to ever happen again. Having the courage to try at our relationship again was a risk, but one I was willing to take and I'd do it all again”
Leo felt his heart wanting to burst and his nerves going at high speeds. However he wanted to make sure he expressed all of this before popping the question. With the most delicate of touches he gently pushed a bit of hair behind Izumi's ear before letting his hand fall.
“Izumi Shimatsu I love you. You're my whole universe and if you want me to say it in a thousand languages I will in a heartbeat. I'm a bit of a dumbass and you know this. Do you think you could do me the honor of making your dumbass boyfriend into your dumbass husband?”
He pulled the tiny box out of his pocket to present a bright aquamarine ring to him. There was so much astonishment written on his boyfriend's face. He gave the other sometime to process all of it. Leo started to notice Izumi slowly covering his face with his hands. Judging by how red his ears were there were so many emotions coming out.
All Leo did was wrap the other in a hug and proceeded to rub at his back. He heard him whimper out something in between sobs but couldn't make it out. Izumi slowly pulled away wiping away the tears from his face.
“I love you so much” he whimpered before closing in and giving Leo a brief kiss on the lips.
“You never told me your answer” he whispers in return.
“Yes, a million times. There's nobody else I'd want to be with besides you”
Their lips met again momentarily for another kiss. Leo placed the ring on Izumi's finger with a large grin on his face.
“I-I remembered your favorite color was blue. So I thought this could represent a little bit of both of us since we're always a team”
“It's beautiful…” he held it up in the sunlight to see it sparkled hints of green and blue.
An OC AU drabble with my OC Leo and a friend’s OC Izumi. A Teacher x Single Parent (who I guess is a rockstar) AU. I didn’t expect to write out this much...
Slightly NSFWish but hardly noticeable
Knuckles braced hard on the phone as an overwhelming wave of shame collided onto him. Leo's heart dropping to the bottom of his stomach deeply anticipating a response. He heard the ringer go off...once...twice...three times. Was it normal to be hot and cold at the same time? He wondered. What about the dirty coffee pot in the sink? He was sure he left something in the oven, plus all the work he had to grade. This was a terrible time to approach this! All these things he had to do it was decided he'll confront this lat---
“Hello?”
“Oh u-um”
Surprised he was greeted with a tired voice on the other end, unlike what he heard on his day to day. Leo tighten his grip on the phone and took a deep breath. His nerves were scattered about and his thoughts were clouded despite having a plan only moments ago. Leo leaned forward his arm resting on his knee continuing to stare at the blank white walls that filled his home.
“M-Mr.Shimatsu my apologies for calling you up so early”
“O-oh! It's you Mr.Davis, did Hotaru do something wrong?”
Leo swallowed hoping his throat would become moist again. He overheard sounds of rustling on the end assuming that was his “acquaintance” on the line just getting out of bed. His eyes shot a glance over at his analog clock that read 8:50 exactly.
“Mr.Davis?”
“Sorry, no Hotaru didn't do anything wrong. This call is about a much more personal matter”
He remembered their exchange like it was yesterday. A boring night at a bar with little to no desire to converse with anyone. He'd only stick around for the music and to be around adults other than his coworkers. This was his self care every so often if he found the strength to make the trip. Other nights he'd lounge around in his home watching fantasy films in till he falls asleep.
He took a sip of cider and looked around at all the people surrounding him. He attention diverted when he heard someone enter through the door. That was when their eyes met one another. Normally, in this instance he's suppose to be smitten...head over heels...heart running a thousand miles. However he went into a panic and swiftly turned his head back to the bar acting as if nothing has happened.
“Mr.Davis?”
Shit
“Oh! What a pleasant coincidence seeing you here Mr.Shimatsu”
A nervous laugh soon came after. He noticed the other man taking a seat next to him. Leo felt every muscle tensing up, feeling every single nerve spike up in his body. This evening was suppose to be a night away from work! Not be confronted with it! He didn't want rumors spreading around that he was here.
“Pleasant indeed...I'd never expect to see you here”
“I'm not the bar scene type of guy I'm sure this is more of your territory”
A soft chuckle came out of the other man's lips. Leo tensed more throwing back the small glass to ease his nerves. He was trapped here by obligation now, instead, he might as well calm himself. Perhaps he can sweeten the other just enough to keep this exchange between the two of them.
“Guessing you're saying that because of the way I look,huh? I get it a lot”
“You're not the most average parent I've met in my years of teaching Mr.Shimatsu”
“Is that so?”
“Mhmmmmm”
Frankly he wasn't courageous enough to look over at Mr.Shimatsu. If he were to assume anything he'd guess the other looked amused by his actions. Having the same smile on his face he'd usually have when they had brief conversations at school. Despite the grungey get up he did have a nice smile, and a pair of beautiful blue eyes. Not that Leo noticed or anything rather he'd overhear some of the women in the PTA gush about Mr.Shimatsu.
His train of thought stopped once he noticed a song change. He can only hear it muffled over all the chatter but it put him a little more at ease when he started to hum along. It prompted the other to look at him quizzically.
“I never knew you were a rock fan”
“Always have been and always will be”
Leo wasn't sure how it happened but it prompted the two of them to have a long conversation about music they liked. He could've sworn mixed in there somewhere were a few flirty smiles, but who could really tell? He continued ordering and on liquor that his mind wasn't all there anymore. Buzzed and snickering at every corny joke Mr.Shimatsu tried to impress him with.
“Don't quit your day job Mr.Shimatsu”
“I don't anticipate to and please you can call me Izumi…”
Izumi. Somehow it was a fitting name for him. It rolled off the tongue well. Leo's cheeks darken from the delivery of that sentence and the meaning behind it. He shouldn't indulge himself in this game,but rather go home. However, it was the other's smile that left him sitting there. Such a warm and enticing gaze that only landed on him. In such a manner he felt almost special like he was the only person in the room. Mixed with how buzzed he was currently he didn't mind this attention at all.
“Alright Izumi I'm Leo” he said sending a smile back.
“Do you have a ride back home?”
“I don't live too fa---” he paused for a moment, “No, I don't have a ride back home. If only someone could do me the honor”
Izumi laughed in response getting up and paying for the both of them. Which was a bit of a surprise to Leo seeing as he was fully willing to pay for himself. He got up from his chair feeling himself lose a bit of balance, but hardly anything noticeable.
The car ride was brief though the two were laughing at one another and complaining about work. Honestly this was the most relaxed Leo has ever felt in such long time. The most he'd ever unwind with is a few friends he'd see once in awhile, or if he popped by to see his cousin down a few blocks. Though...this experience felt different than with his friends or family. Leo hardly had this type of attention in a long time.
Then and only then did he take the very few last of his functioning brain cells to reflect on his current situation. The two slowly reached the front of Leo's house standing right beside one another. The only thing illuminating was the dim porch light.
“Listen I wanted to say I had a really nice time” Izumi said with a smile. “If...it isn't too much to ask for maybe we could do something like this again sometime”
“Mmm maybe” Leo said. He was rather impartial on the decision. He couldn't go back to work knowing he was dating one of his student's parents. Especially someone as well known around as Izumi, he'd never hear the end of it.
Though he was single from rumors that floated around. He had the most charming smile, and beautiful set of blue eyes. His voice was smooth, but almost dorky in a way he found adorable. He tried to be this big mysterious rock sensation but in reality he was such a big nerd. His outer appearance and personality were polar opposites.
His body fell on autopilot and impulse. Leo grabbed both sides of Izumi's dress shirt collar and yanked him down so he was on level. He was greeted with a very surprised look on Izumi's face.
“W-what are you doing?”
“I want a kiss” Leo said in a deadpan expression.
“I--”
“C'moooonnn just one kiss plllleeaaasseeee?” Leo whined hoping it'd attract the other to his offer.
Leo may have his dumb moments but he wasn't stupid. He saw the way the other looked at him when they spoke.During their talks he noticed Izumi gently biting at his lip or glancing over at his own. Their first two meetings Izumi stammered hard and his cheeks went red. Even when shaking hands Izumi forgot to pull away. Leo knew Izumi was attracted to him, but he tried pushing it away for the sake of his reputation.
Now it was the two of them alone under a dimly lit light with not a single person in sight.
“Fine” Izumi sighed putting both of his hands on Leo's hips and pulling him in. Of course Izumi leaned in slowly, but Leo had other plans.
Leo quickly pushed the back of Izumi's head with his hand causing their lips to abruptly collide. He hasn't kissed anyone in so long he felt a little out of the loop on the know hows but he went with it. By no means was this inherently romantic within seconds the two were exchanging tongue tasting the alcohol they consumed only minutes ago. In the meantime their hands were moving across every single curvature of each others bodies. Somehow Leo managed to be firmly pressed right up against the wall.
They pulled away having a loss of breath. It was then Izumi let go of the other and took a step back. Leo was disappointed but understood why this happened. He didn't feel right going this far when he's buzzed and only been on one outing with the guy. That didn't mean he couldn't be disappointed. He hasn't been kissed or touched in years and his body has been longing for that need to be met.
Leo was greeted with a small kiss on his cheek soon after from Izumi. It tickled in a strange way that it caused him to smile and touch his cheek. He returned the favor but instead he had to get on the tips of his toes to reach Izumi's cheek.
“Goodnight Leo…” Izumi said in a soft almost angelic voice.
“Goodnight Izumi…” Leo said in return waving him off.
Afterwards he rummaged around in his pocket for his keys and planted himself face first into his uncomfortable sofa, reeking of alcohol, and with a small “problem” in his pants only one person could satisfy.
It was the worst sleep he had in awhile…
Ever since then seeing Hotaru in school felt awkward, and he tried actively avoiding after school yard duty calls so he could avoid every instance of seeing Izumi. That was in till now. He couldn't remember for the life of him how Izumi's cell phone number got into his phone, but he had to address this once and for all.
“Do you remember that outing we had a week ago?” Leo said very slowly making sure Izumi heard clearly on the end of the line.
Ayyyeee I made a better ref for Bug! This is both for 4 and New Vegas.
She’s morally a good character compared to some of the other Fallout OCs I play as in my games. She comes from a place of being naive and sheltered for most of her life. Bug believes there’s still good people in the world, and realizes she can make a difference by doing even the smallest of things. This does change when she grows older a little bit.
Her greatest stats are in intelligence and agility (F:NV) and intelligence and luck (F4). Both games however her worst stats are in strength and charisma. In turn she’s not the best at engaging conversations but she’s good at tinkering with technology, repairing things, and scavenging for items.
My dog hasn't let me sleep so I guess I made more Fallout doodles of Bug and Boone. There's a random eye there, but don't worry about it. Tho usually Bug refers to Boone as Mr.Boone without even knowing if that's even his last name or not.
Tfw you, some anxious weenie, would like to hold conversations with other people. However, you’re too nervous to attempt. Then you decided to team up with someone who speaks no more than a word half the time.
All these neat fallout ocs I saw under the tags are rad af. It gave me a lot of inspiration to make my own! Granted this is a rough ref because it’s 3 am but that’s roughly what she looks like. She’s based around New Vegas though I’ll eventually work on a 4 version of her.
YO I haven’t updated much in a long time but I’m holding up commissions! If you’re interested you can message me here or my twitter. Everything is in USD and I’m using paypal.
